Kristaps Porzingis suffered a pretty gnarly injury in the Celtics 109-100 Game 2 win over the Magic and his coach had a very on-brand reaction.
In the third quarter, Porzingis took a hard elbow to the face from Orlandos Goga Bitadze and was spurting blood from his forehead instantly.

Bitadze was called for a loose ball foul that was later upgraded to a Flagrant 1.
Although the Latvian big man was clearly hurt, he seemed to be loving it. He was smiling ear to ear as he left the court to get patched up.
